If you traded Quentin couldn't you replace him with Andruw Jones? Jones had a higher WAR than Quentin in 2010.
Stole my thunder, was just about to post this as an idea.
See if Quentin can be moved for a quality, controllable (is that even a word?) bullpen arm and platoon Andruw Jones and Teahen in RF.
Couple of notes here (to defend my position):
Jones caught heat from fans on boards and blogs for one single bad month. Otherwise, he played exceedingly well for the Sox (ignoring WAR). He is a plus defender.
For as much flack as Teahen takes, its because of his 3B defense (was anyone really surprised?) and his contract - but not for his bat. His valuation is based on his hitting (again, ignoring WAR). Keep his glove away from 3B and he'll earn that 4.75 million. If puttiong Teahen on the field and in the lineup 2 or 3 times a week keeps Quentin out of RF, I am all for it.
PS - go Sox!
